Changes
-
Dicalcium phosphate was replaced with monocalcium phosphate – both are a source of calcium and phosphorus important for bone health
-
Dried kelp, Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus niger, and yeast extract were removed because they were not nutritionally essential and added unnecessary cost
-
Crude fat and crude fibre were updated to reflect the most accurate nutrient values in this recipe
-
The EPA+DHA values are reported as one value to be consistent with how these nutrients are reported in the AAFCO nutrient profiles. Values were updated to reflect the most accurate levels and remain sufficient to support the cognitive health of growing puppies
-
L-carnitine was added to the GA to draw attention to its inclusion in the recipe and its functional benefits of supporting heart health/fat burning
-
Omega 3 and 6 values were updated to reflect the most up to date nutrient values in this recipe
